The Way You Make Me Feel

When I see you, I want to kiss you When you leave, all I want to do is be wrapped up in your arms When you text me “Hey beautiful,” I blush When you tell me you want to be with me, I get butterflies When you tell me you want to hug me, I can feel your touch When we make a plan to hang out, I can go from depressed to happy in a matter of seconds When I found out you’re a lesbian, I thanked God, and grew excited When you asked me out, I felt like I was the luckiest girl on earth When we played 20 questions I was anxious for your reply When I told you about my horrible secrets, I was afraid you wouldn’t like me anymore.

This is a great rendition of a classic love poem. Nice job! I think it would be even better if you added more to the ending as well. I would love it if you could read and give feedback on my poem "Forever." Thank you, and well done!
